The go with the flow trend has descended into carnage claiming lives. The useless and baseless concept of new years still seems to grip many. What makes the ignorant forget is that, the Creator has subjugated His Creation for the benefit of humankind. When they fall prey to any and every baseless claim of the Kuffaar and even start now emulating their ways then Allah Ta’alaa from time to time punishes this Ummah. But it is up to them to take lesson.
For the stupidity of new year celebrations, refer to the article:
Still the world celebrates? IOL reports:
COASTAL regions across South Africa are on high alert today as a lethal “super tide” continues to batter the shoreline, leaving at least three people dead and five others missing in a series of New Year’s Day tragedies.
The National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) issued an urgent national advisory on Friday, warning that the current full moon spring tide—set to peak on Monday, 5 January—is creating “vicious” sea conditions and exceptionally powerful rip currents.
New Year’s Day carnage
What should have been a day of celebration turned into a nightmare for families at several popular beaches on Thursday.
In the most severe incident, a group of five swimmers was swept out to sea at Pennington Beach on the KZN South Coast. While lifeguards managed to pull three people from the water, two 21-year-old men were later confirmed deceased. A massive search is currently underway for two additional young men, both aged 21, who are still missing.
In Langebaan, a 26-year-old man from Burundi died after being found floating lifeless by a kite-boarder. Further north at St Lucia’s Jabula Beach, a 15-year-old boy vanished beneath the surf after rip currents swept three casualties into heavy breaking swells. While two were saved by the NSRI’s JetRIB craft, the teenager has not been seen since.
South Africa’s coastal regions on high alert as lethal super tide claims lives
Allah Ta’alaa says in Surah Aal Imraan, verse 149:
یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اِنْ تُطِیْعُوا الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا یَرُدُّوْكُمْ عَلٰۤى اَعْقَابِكُمْ فَتَنْقَلِبُوْا خٰسِرِیْنَ
O those who believe, if you obey those who disbelieve they will make you turn back on your heels, then you shall turn losers
